No. 1 Qiang Zhang, Bo Pan, Tao Meng, Guo-Feng Li, Wei-Bin Xu & Zhi-Ming Li: Petrocosmea funingensis(Gesneriaceae): a new species from southeastern Yunnan, China —Phytotaxa 77(1): 5-8.

ABSTRACT

Petrocosmea funingensis, a new species from southeastern Yunnan, China is here described andillustrated. Based on morphological characters it is assumed to belong to section Anisochilus, because of the shallow or slight split of the corolla lobes with the upper lip being nearly half as long as the lower one. Within the section, the new species is associated with the species from series Iodioides, due to the particularly extensive fusion of the two adaxial lobes and is morphologically most similar to P. huanjiangensis and P. iodioides, especially in floral structure and traits, but can be distinguished from these species by several quantitative and qualitative characters of the leaves, peduncles, calices, stamens, staminodes and styles.

ABSTRACT

Primulina huaijiensis Z.L. Ning & J. Wang sp. nova (Gesneriaceae) from Guangdong, China is described and illustrated. It is similar to P. renifolia, but differs from P. renifolia in several morphological characters, both vegetative and reproductive as well as in having a different flowering period (October–December).

ABSTRACT

Primulina lutvittata Fang Wen & Y.G. Wei, a new species of Gesneriaceae from Guangdong, China, is described and illustrated. It is morphologically similar to P. fengshanensis , but differs by several characters of the leaves, cymes, bracts, corollas and anthers.
